Now, recent findings released March 19 from two of the largest cosmological surveys to date - the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey and the Dark Energy Survey (DES) - challenge ...

According to our best possible understanding of the universe, regular matter is only a small fraction of the matter-energy ...

New evidence suggests the universe might not behave as expected, raising questions about the costs of being wrong.

The 10-year survey is the primary mission of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, located on a mountaintop at the edge of Chile’s ...

Scientists previously thought dark energy was constant, but findings indicate it behaves in unexpected ways. If dark energy continues weakening, the universe's expansion could eventually stop or ...

Cosmologist Katie Mack breaks down what the latest findings about dark energy mean for our universe’s future. Either way, it won’t be happy. Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI ...

Columnist and Physics How dark energy findings may inspire a new generation of physics nerds. The discovery of the cosmic acceleration problem truly inspired me as a teenage physics nerd.

The current findings are between 2.8 and 4.2 sigma, yet each new round of data brings the DESI team closer to rewriting the understanding of dark energy and sending cosmologists back to their ...

In the wake of bombshell findings that suggest dark energy might be weakening as the universe expands, physicists are considering replacing the standard cosmological model of the universe with ...

Brian Schmidt explains dark energy’s role in accelerating universe expansion, 1998 discovery’s impact, and urges students to ...
